Summary:
This was a brief overview of how to adapt Argyris’s theories to lesson planning and evaluation on a practical level.Basically, effective planning comes from starting with a general global goal and linking it with a local goal.(I see this as linking a practical life skill with classroom learning.)If learning on both levels did not take place then you contemplate the disparity.This contemplation process is the key of the theory.You either re-evaluate your action strategy (how the lesson was carried out), called single-loop learning, or re-evaluate your guiding variables (the bigger picture learning goal), called double-loop learning.
Questions/ideas for further exploration:
Honestly, this seems to be what we usually do after a lesson without ever knowing the flashy names of “Theories of Action”, “Espoused Theory,” and “Theory in Use.” For most educators, this process is second nature.
Personal Professional Development Gains:
I was encouraged to spend more time reflecting after a "mediocre" lesson to deem what went right, what went wrong and why.
Application Ideas:
§I am going to evaluate our current AP registration system. §I am going to evaluate why our students don’t do well on mathematics standardized testing. §I am going to evaluate why I can’t seem to get the members of the golf team to self-practice.
